As peril closes in on a sanctuary hidden in the mountains, an unlikely love grows amid the shadows of war.
In 1942, American historian Lydia Burgess has remained in France to study its past, but when a Jewish family in her apartment building is arrested, she can no longer remain a quiet observer of history. She joins a relief agency escorting children to safety, bringing them to Le Chambon-sur-Lignon--a remote mountain village in unoccupied France that has become a refuge for those fleeing persecution.
In Le Chambon, Dr. Christophe de La Croix will do anything to protect the innocent in his care. After the Germans occupy southern France, Lydia faces internment as an American citizen. To allow her to continue her work, Christophe proposes a practical solution: Marry him, a French citizen. But as danger threatens their fragile haven, Lydia and Christophe must guard both those under their protection and the unexpected bond forming between them as the war demands more from them than they ever imagined.
Renowned author of World War II fiction Sarah Sundin delivers a historical romance inspired by true events, weaving a marriage of convenience into a story of impossible choices and the remarkable hope and courage that bloom even in the darkest of times.
